When I mess about trying to decide where to put the tiniest and most insignificant of flat back gem I call it Fiddle Farting, hence the name of the blog!!!

Spider Halloween Altered Domino Decoration

This is my second project using the “proper” dominoes I found in a charity shop and just like the first time, stamping directly on the blank side is not as easy as it sounds, as I found that the stamp slid and subsequently smudged. If I want to use a stamped design on a domino again, I will stamp on paper first and then glue the design onto the domino.

I used Jet Black StazOn ink for the stamping. I’m afraid I can’t remember the make the stamp.

When the ink was dry I added a few tiny silver stars and clusters of three dots here and there and then applied a good layer of Ranger Glossy Accents on top, leaving it to set for 24hrs before adding two googly eyes.

I covered the sides of the domino with narrow, self adhesive silver metal foil tape and then drilled a hole in the top for an eye screw pin to hang the domino from.

Looking at the pictures It does look a tiny bit bland especially for Halloween, I will hang the domino from a white thread, and then when the ribbons I have on order arrive, I think I will add an orange or purple one to bring the whole design together (extra pictures to follow).
